Description

Sicily is appreciated not only for its red wines but also for its whites; Chardonnay is perhaps the most adaptable of all the non-native white varieties. In this wine, the varietal notes are put in absolute evidence and the good acidity that this grape has in its DNA gives it a freshness that also makes it a wine for ageing.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 2002
  • Oenologist: Alessandro Cellai
  • Bottles produced: 400.000
  • Hectares: 45
The company is located in south-eastern Sicily, just a few minutes from Caltagirone, Piazza Armerina and Vittoria, i.e. between the Roman Villa that has miraculously remained intact and the capital of ceramics, 7 km from the sea. The estate dates back to 1700 and was one of the largest in Sicily. The ancient building includes the Palmento, from the Latin word Paumentum, referring to pressing something. To crush grapes, in vats that then let the must drop by gravity, has been ascertained to be the best technique today. Restored without any changes to the existing building, the Palmento is connected to a modern wine cellar built to vinify up to 10,000 hectolitres using the most advanced technology. Part of the Palmento and the Baglio has been converted into a wine relais with 10 rooms and a restaurant above the barrique cellar visible through the glass floor. Read more
